The patented Pil-O-Splint is designed by an orthopedic & hand surgeon to provide relief from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The wrist brace gently immobilizes the wrist, hand, and fingers in a neutral position during rest and sleep. Made with soft cotton lining and breathable foam. Slides on and off easily. Latex Free.

Nocturnal splinting of the wrist is commonly used to treat carpal tunnel syndrome. Rationales for overnight wrist splinting are based on several research studies, which suggest that passively and actively sustained positions of the wrist and digits during sleep contribute to elevated carpal tunnel pressures.

Product Reviews

I tried the SmartGlove PM on at a local medical supply store ($55) and then purchased it from PainReliever.com at a much reduced price. I purchased it to protect a fractured wrist during the night after the cast came off. I needed a night brace because it was impossible to find a comfortable position and the padded splint supplied by the doctor caused too much pain and pressure for use at night. The Smart Glove PM was a little snug because my wrist was still swollen.
This Pil-O-Splint was a little larger and looser so I used it for a couple of weeks until the swelling went down. It is also useful for cushioning and supporting my wrist during lazy activities such as while watching TV at night.
Both provided a perfectly comfortable position for the wrist and just enough support so that the wrist wouldn't bend. Also, the support comes from the top of the glove so the wrist and hand are laying on soft padding. It keeps the wrist in a perfectly neutral position during the night and completely eliminated the discomfort and pain.
The two IMAK products I have purchased have been excellent.

Very good product that got me to sleep through the night after using it for a couple nights. Only negative is it might be a little too tight for some people. I sometimes have to take it off in the middle of the night (hand throbs too much from pressure) and I switch it to my other hand. I think with a little modification it could be perfect to where it would not be too tight which reduces circulation to my hand.

This helps!, June 27, 2009

I heard about this splint from a motorcycle cop who had hand pain from gripping all daY. This splint opens up the hand in a comfortable position to allow the writ muscles to stretch out overnight.
My hand pain comes from years of overuse as a photographer and guitar player,.
My massage therapist pointed out that my left hand was curled up when in a relaxed position because the muscles were constricted. This splint corrected that in just one use.
It is comfortable and cool enough to wear in summer.
I hope it helps you too.

I had purchased this splint. At first, I loved it, however after a fairly short time, the material stretched out enough that it no longer provided me with support.
